dc.abstract.enModern agriculture should limit its degrading impact on the soils, the natural environment, and the climate. No-tillage soil cultivation technologies, which have been in use for many years and are constantly being improved, are a good example of these actions; although, in-depth studies on their impact on the soil microbial community are currently scarce. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of cultivation technology on the soil bacterial community to assess differences that can be reflected in the environmental and agricultural functionality, identifying possible bacterial species with ecological properties. In this context, the composition of bacterial communities (at the phyla, order, class, and species levels) was evaluated under different conditions, such as conventional tillage (CT) (plophing), reduced tillage (RT) (stubble cultivator), strip tillage (ST), and no-tillage (direct sowing on stubble and fallow buffer zone of the experimental field), in a horse bean plantation. Metagenomic methods (next generation sequencing technology, NGS) were used to determine the percentage of individual operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Our study showed that no-tillage cultivation technologies, mainly strip and no-tillage methods, had a positive effect on microbiological communities. In fact, key species related to soil fertility and crop yield, such as Gemmatimonas aurantiaca (a microorganism that reduce nitrous oxide, N2O in soil) and Aeromicrobium ponti (a beneficial species for the soil environment, essential for the proper functioning of the crop agroecosystem), increased in reduced cultivation technologies. These species can determine soil fertility and crop yields, and therefore, they are very important for sustainable and even regenerative agriculture. Further studies of soil samples collected from other crop plantations under different cropping systems may indicate beneficial microbial species that are important for soil fertility.
